Yaya's milestone...?

Yaya Toure will make his 300th City appearance this afternoon if he comes off the bench against Brighton, almost seven years to the day he made his debut against Spurs in 2010.

The Ivorian is on 299 appearances - just one shy of the 300 club that currently counts Vincent Kompany and David Silva as members.

Stats and facts:

City won 12 times on the road last season - a new Club record in the Premier League era.
